Brown jasper 2

Brown Jasper, called Egyptian marble, was one of the traditional Jaspers in Ancient Egypt used for amulets, ritual vessels, and jewelry. Native Americans and other indigenous societies carved it into arrowheads for luck and protection, and utilized the stone to call in rain. A quintessential Earth Stone, Brown Jasper is deeply connected to the planet as “home,” and engenders security and protection, nurturing and healing. Today Brown Jasper promotes ecological awareness and is highly effective in alleviating geopathic and environmental stress. It cleanses the physical and emotional body of toxins and negative thought forms, and repairs the aura, bringing stability and balance. Its frequency facilitates deep meditation and centering, and grants access to past lives for karmic healing.
It is related to the Shiva Lingham Stone.

Wear or carry Brown Jasper for long periods to help keep one “down to earth,” and to alleviate stress and induce tranquility. Its cleansing effect eliminates negative energy and stabilizes the aura. It is particularly grounding as a worry stone, and may be used as a rescue stone for dissolving a sudden rush of fear, anger or panic. It is also effective for banishing nightmares or harmful thoughts. Brown Jasper is a remarkable talisman for cutting down or quitting smoking. It removes harmful toxins from the system over time, and increases the resolve needed to overcome the emotional triggers that perpetuate the behavior. Brown Jasper provides stamina and untiring perseverance in tackling huge amounts of work or ongoing projects by apportioning one’s energy. It also sustains during difficult life situations that sap one’s strength. Brown Jasper is superb for healing the physical and emotional bodies during injury, prolonged illness or hospitalization. Its Earth energies bring gradual strength and renewed vitality, while helping one to understand and endure these frustrating or painful experiences.

Brown Jasper gives stamina to old or sick animals, and can restore natural instincts to pets living in city apartments or who walk only on urban streets.

Use Brown Jasper as a charm for all property matters, such as buying, selling or renting a home, and for success in business transactions having to do with finances and loans. In the home or office, Brown Jasper protects against electromagnetic energies, technological pollution, noise and hyperactivity. A large decorative piece in a room works slowly but the effects are long-lasting. Rest it monthly by placing it in the soil of a green plant overnight.

Brown Jasper is credited with:

  • boosting the immune system
  • cleansing toxins and pollutants from the body
  • and stimulating the cleansing organs

It is particularly fortifying to the stomach and intestines, and is thought to balance the mineral content of the body. It may aid in treating:

  • the bowel and prostate
  • and conditions such as chronic constipation,
  • gastro-enteritis
  • IBS
  • coeliac disease
  • and Crohn’s disease

Brown Jasper is believed to:

  • improve night vision

Jasper provides a strengthening energy for the emotional body, easing stress and producing a calm stability. For those sensitive to its vibration, it creates a special aura, a pleasant sensation as it irradiates throughout the body. It invites feelings of:

  • compassion
  • and patience
  • humility
  • and even generosity.

Brown Jasper is especially helpful in reducing insecurity in those who are constantly worried about money or losing their job or home, or who are filled with guilt about past failings or inadequacies. It helps one come to terms with life’s situations and to regain a foothold after defeats. Brown Jasper breaks the emotional self-defeating cycle and replaces it with a sense of contentment.

Brown Jasper is excellent for activating the Base or Root Chakra, located at the base of the spine. The Base Chakra controls the energy for kinesthetic feeling and movement, and is the foundation of physical and spiritual energy for the body. When physically out of balance, symptoms manifest themselves as lethargy, low levels of activity, low enthusiasm, and a need for constant stimulation. When spiritual energies are out of balance, one may feel flighty, disconnected from reality or distant. By balancing the Base Chakra, the physical body regains its strength and stamina, and the spiritual energy is rekindled in the form of security and sense of one’s own power. It often leads to independence and spontaneous leadership. Brown Jasper may also be used to stimulate the Earth Chakra, located between and slightly below the feet. It holds the soul into carnation and creates a solid connection to the planet Earth, allowing excess and out-of-balance energies to flow from the body.

Jasper strengthens one’s connection to the Earth and the spiritual wisdom and sacredness of life that exists in nature. It encourages one to celebrate moments of beauty in the ordinary and the extraordinary, and to find harmony within the self, and with others. Through meditation and dream work, Jasper can provide a connection with Earth’s ancient past and allows one to retrieve spiritual knowledge for use in the present to help heal humanity and the planet.

All Jaspers provide a calm, harmonious energy for meditation. They are ideal for grounding and centering at the beginning of a ritual, and ease the transition to a meditative state. Brown Jasper is particularly conducive for deep, grounded meditation and achieving desired results. It also facilitates past life regression in order to reveal karmic causes behind disease.

Known as “the rain bringer,” Jasper has been revered since ancient and medieval times as a divining stone of “tempestaries,” magical masters of the wind and rain, called upon in secret to save harvests in periods of drought, or to save ships from violent storms. Green and Brown Jaspers were considered the most powerful for this purpose. Jasper was also used by the American Indians for dowsing the land for water, and Red Jasper was especially helpful in increasing the searcher’s sensitivity to the Earth. The Divinatory meaning of Brown Jasper: Stay calm and be realistic about possible problems and obstacles ahead; things will work out well, if slower than anticipated.
